The village of Nanticoke is in fever of ex
element over startling affair which has just
taken place in its midst. John Wayrick came to
the United States from Germany twenty years
ago. He came to the coal regions and found
employment in one of the mines By industry
and frugality he managed to accumulate some
money. He married buxom lass from his own
native land. The couple were happy. The husband
continued to grow in prosperity, being promoted
from miner to foreman. Six children blessed the
union. All went well until about three years ago,
when Wayrick took to drinking He lost his
lucrative position in the mines, and was COM
PEELED to go back to work cutting coal. AS
result of Wayrick's dissipated habits, dis
sensions arose In the family, and frequent
quarrels between man and wife were the
suit The husband and father went on from
bad to worse, his property was sold by the sher-
if to pay his debts. and the wife was compelled
to keep boarders in order to feed the children.
Through the influence Of friends Wayrick was
persuaded to relinquish his former habits and be
u man once more
On the first Of the new year he swore off
drinking. and was given job in the mines.
All the neighborhood congratulated themselves
on the wonderful reform worked in the hereto
fore hayd-hearted husband. Wayrick is now
on his road West He bought ticket
for Chicago on Saturday. On Friday he sold
his whole family to one of his boarders, Phillip
Mauer, for the sum of $90-$50 for the wife and
$40 apiece for the two boys, aged fourteen and
twelve. Mauer refused to pay anything for the
four younger children, as he said they would be
burden on his hands. The original contract
was that Mauer was to give his three
younger children to his sister for keep
ing, and Mauer pay him $3.50 for
the wife and the other childen who were old
enough to work, but in consideration of Mauer
taking the whole family. reduction of $50 was
allowed Mrs. Wayrck says she is satisfied
with the bargain, as Mauer is a sober man and
will be good to them. Wayrick was once a
member of the town council and an influential
man.

He began to be affected mentally about a
month ago. owing to hard study and poor food.

period after death occupied his mind. and he
read every line that he could get concerning the
Andover departure. During the recent trial of
the professors FOR heresy he became excited, and
at length he concluded TO commit suicide in case
the probation idea won a verdict. He wished to
kill himself if he could thereafter have on

How "senator" Branaman Is Regarded.

talk of compromise candidate being taken up
by the Republicans in the hope Of gaining the
knight of Labor vote. The situation is an un-
certain one, and no man can tell what one ballot
will bring forth. He stated that number of
important bills are under Roadway, and that if
the senatorial question was once settled good
work would be done. He does not believe that
the Senate will proceed any further in the course
of ousting Republicans and seating Democrats
'How is the unseating of Mcdonald regarded

Just as is regarded here and all over the
State. l would not be in the position of Brana-
man, the Democrat who was seated, for the
State of Indiana. Although that district was
1000 Democratic, Mcdonald was elected by 600
majority. Branaman occupies the seat, but he
recognizes the disgrace and humiliation of his
position. None of the Republicans have any
thing to do with him and the Democrats cannot
respect him. and the consequence is he is let
severely alone He receives scores of letters ev-
cry day from the Democrats in his district and
